a boho thing

crop top: miss selfridge, culottes: H&M

I hope this gorgeous weather is treating everyone as nicely as it's treating me! And because of the glorious sunshine the lovely summer clothes can make their long awaited appearance.

 I went major holiday shopping this past Friday with my boyfriend (2 weeks today and we head out to Gran Canaria for 10 days, yay!) and picked up way over £100 worth of stuff, and these 2 pieces were part of that lot. I've wanted these types of crop tops for ages, to wear in the summer and also to wear as part of an evening ensemble, so I bought the black and the white so they can go with a wide variety of outfits. These are available in different stores such as Topshop/River Island, I would honestly recommend the Miss Selfridge range they are more substantial in their material, in the other stores I tried on the white crop top and it would be very see through, but the Miss Selfridge one is substantial enough not to be like that.

Now these culottes, they are the comfiest things I've worn! To be quite honest, I wouldn't described these as something I would wear, I don't own any other bottoms like these, but I figured for summer I would need some lightweight longish trousers for the days when I just don't fancy shorts (which is a lot!) and these fit that brief perfectly, and at only £14.99, I couldn't say no!

Lots of love!

it's an animal thing

dress: topshop, jumper: zara

Ahh, I had the best discovery on the weekend. I visited home to see my new foster brother and I had a wee old rummage around my closet and found about 20 items of clothing that I haven't worn in about 3/4 years! This is a uniform dress from back when I worked for Topshop (Summer 2011) and I bought the jumper to go with it, it's the most adorable outfit ever, and I stopped wearing it when the dress and jumper got too small as I grew up, but now nearly 4 years later it fits again, and it's the cutest little ensemble with my patent black brogues and tights.

The weather has taken an ugly turn again, feels almost like winter again! Too cold and I am a misery for it! Assignments and Practical Assessments are taking over my life at the moment, Easter break this Friday cannot come any quicker! 2 weeks off to regain some sanity!

Hope everyone is having a super week!

a summer change

jumper: oasis, sleeveless shirt: mango, floral trousers: zara

It's finally warmer! Thank goodness, I thought I'd have no time to wear all my summer clothing, but it's around 15/16 degrees, while it's not tropical yet, I'm finally able to leave my sheepskin at home and not be a shivering mess. 

Mother bought this sleeveless shirt for me, apparently mango was having a mega sale and she couldn't contain herself, so she picked me up this, a top for holiday, white jeans, navy shimmery jeans (they sound rank, but they are actually brilliant) and a few other bits and bobs, which I'm sure I'll feature soon. The good old faithful floral trousers make their second appearance, they are so easy and so comfortable I can't not wear them on days like this! 

I hope you're all enjoying this lovely change in weather also!
